Trump could still renegotiate Iran nuclear deal: White House

US President Donald Trump is confident he could still renegotiate the 2015 nuclear accord with Iran, despite the killing of Tehran's top general in a US air raid last week, White House adviser Kellyanne Conway said on Monday.

Conway made the comment to reporters at the White House on Monday, a day after Iran announced it would retreat further from the 2015 nuclear pact following the killing of its top general in a US air raid at the Baghdad international airport last week.

Asked if Trump believes he can still get Iran to negotiate a new nuclear agreement, Conway told reporters at the White House: "He said he's open. If Iran wants to start behaving like a normal country ... sure, absolutely."

I'm not sure future presidents will make any progress on it. Everyone knows that within 4 years, there's another opportunity for another Trump-like pawn to break any agreements.

Feign indifference. Send a woman out to do your talking for you. Let her puff her chest up for you. I’m sure those eye-ranians will be so relieved that you’re giving them a chance to kiss your ass.

We’re all so impressed!

to demonstrate his awesome negotiating skills.

I'm sure there'll be people at the airport waiting to shower him with rose petals and transport him in the country's very finest tumbrel.
